    The production of reactive oxygen species in response to RNA virus infection results in the oxidation of viral genomic RNA within infected cells. These oxidative RNA lesions undergo replication catalyzed by the viral replisome. G to U transversion mutations are frequently observed in the SARS-CoV-2 genome and may be linked to the replication process catalyzed by RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) past the oxidative RNA lesion 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-riboguanosine (8-oxo-rG). To better understand the mechanism of viral RNA mutagenesis, it is crucial to elucidate the role of RdRp in replicating across oxidative lesions. In this study, we investigated the RNA synthesis catalyzed by the reconstituted SARS-CoV-2 RdRp past a single 8-oxo-rG. The RdRp-mediated primer extension was significantly inhibited by 8-oxo-rG on the template RNA. A steady-state multiple-turnover reaction demonstrated that the turnover rate of RdRp was significantly slow when replication was blocked by 8-oxo-rG, reflecting low bypass efficiency even with prolonged reaction time. Once RdRp was able to bypass 8-oxo-rG, it preferentially incorporated rCMP, with a lesser amount of rAMP opposite 8-oxo-rG. In contrast, RdRp demonstrated greater activity in extending from the mutagenic rA:8-oxo-rG terminus compared to the lower efficiency of extension from the rC:8-oxo-rG pair. Based on steady-state kinetic analyses for the incorporation of rNMPs opposite 8-oxo-rG and chain extension from rC:8-oxo-rG or rA:8-oxo-rG, the relative bypass frequency for rA:8-oxo-rG was found to be seven-fold higher than that for rC:8-oxo-rG. Therefore, the properties of RdRp indicated in this study may contribute to the mechanism of mutagenesis of the SARS-CoV-2 genome.

    Summary Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare genetic disease caused by the loss of function of one of the 22 associated genes and is characterized by bone marrow failure, cancer predisposition, and developmental defects. The proteins encoded by these genes (FA proteins) mainly function in DNA damage response and repair. Although FA deficiency has multiple effects on the regulation of lipid metabolism, the molecular function of FA proteins in the context of FA pathology remains unclear. In the present study, we demonstrated that FANCD2, a key component of FA proteins, interacts with lipid metabolism-related factors and that FANCD2 deficiency downregulates the cellular levels of fatty acids. Moreover, a portion of FANCD2 is localized to nuclear lipid droplets in response to oleic acid treatment. These subcellular dynamics are independent of FANCD2 monoubiquitination, which is essential for the DNA damage response. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that FANCD2 responds to not only DNA damage but also oleic acid exposure, providing insights into the pathogenesis of lipid dysregulation in FA.

    How the fate (folding versus degradation) of glycoproteins is determined in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an intriguing question. Monoglucosylated glycoproteins are recognized by lectin chaperones to facilitate their folding, whereas glycoproteins exposing well-trimmed mannoses are subjected to glycoprotein ER-associated degradation (gpERAD); we have elucidated how mannoses are sequentially trimmed by EDEM family members (George et al., 2020; 2021 eLife). Although reglucosylation by UGGT was previously reported to have no effect on substrate degradation, here we directly tested this notion using cells with genetically disrupted UGGT1/2. Strikingly, the results showed that UGGT1 delayed the degradation of misfolded substrates and unstable glycoproteins including ATF6α. An experiment with a point mutant of UGGT1 indicated that the glucosylation activity of UGGT1 was required for the inhibition of early glycoprotein degradation. These and overexpression-based competition experiments suggested that the fate of glycoproteins is determined by a tug-of-war between structure formation by UGGT1 and degradation by EDEMs. We further demonstrated the physiological importance of UGGT1, since ATF6α cannot function properly without UGGT1. Thus, our work strongly suggests that UGGT1 is a central factor in ER protein quality control via the regulation of both glycoprotein folding and degradation.

    It remains uncertain how global genome nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER) efficiently removes various helix distorting DNA lesions in the cell nucleus. Here, we present a protocol to assess the contribution of factors of interest to GG-NER using two types of fluorescence-microscopy-based techniques. First, we describe steps for analyzing the localization of the factors upon local ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. We then detail the second technique, which quantifies the removal of UV-induced photolesions combined with lesion-specific antibodies and program-based image analysis. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Kusakabe et al.1.

    The XPC protein complex plays a central role in DNA lesion recognition for global genome nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER). Lesion recognition can be accomplished in either a UV-DDB-dependent or -independent manner; however, it is unclear how these sub-pathways are regulated in chromatin. Here, we show that histone deacetylases 1 and 2 facilitate UV-DDB-independent recruitment of XPC to DNA damage by inducing histone deacetylation. XPC localizes to hypoacetylated chromatin domains in a DNA damage-independent manner, mediated by its structurally disordered middle (M) region. The M region interacts directly with the N-terminal tail of histone H3, an interaction compromised by H3 acetylation. Although the M region is dispensable for in vitro NER, it promotes DNA damage removal by GG-NER in vivo, particularly in the absence of UV-DDB. We propose that histone deacetylation around DNA damage facilitates the recruitment of XPC through the M region, contributing to efficient lesion recognition and initiation of GG-NER.

    SIRT2 and SIRT3 protein deacetylases maintain genome integrity and stability. However, their mechanisms for maintaining the genome remain unclear. To examine the roles of SIRT2 and SIRT3 in DSB repair, I-SceI-based GFP reporter assays for HR, single-strand annealing (SSA) and nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) repair were performed under SIRT2- or SIRT3-depleted conditions. SIRT2 or SIRT3 depletion inhibited HR repair equally to RAD52 depletion, but did not affect SSA and NHEJ repairs. SIRT2 or SIRT3 depletion disturbed the recruitment of RAD51 to DSB sites, an essential step for RAD51-dependent HR repair, but not directly through RAD52 deacetylation. SIRT2 or SIRT3 depletion decreased the colocalization of γH2AX foci with RPA1, and thus, they might be involved in initiating DSB end resection for the recruitment of RAD51 to DSB sites at an early step in HR repair. These results show the novel underlying mechanism of the SIRT2 and SIRT3 functions in HR for genome stability.

    Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a pathway involved in the repair of a variety of potentially mutagenic lesions that distort the DNA double helix. The ubiquitin E3-ligase complex UV-DDB is required for the recognition and repair of UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) lesions through NER. DDB2 directly binds CPDs and subsequently undergoes ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. DDB2 must remain on damaged chromatin, however, for sufficient time to recruit and hand-off lesions to XPC, a factor essential in the assembly of downstream repair components. Here we show that the tumor suppressor USP44 directly deubiquitinates DDB2 to prevent its premature degradation and is selectively required for CPD repair. Cells lacking USP44 have impaired DDB2 accumulation on DNA lesions with subsequent defects in XPC retention. The physiological importance of this mechanism is evident in that mice lacking Usp44 are prone to tumors induced by NER lesions introduced by DMBA or UV light. These data reveal the requirement for highly regulated ubiquitin addition and removal in the recognition and repair of helix-distorting DNA damage and identify another mechanism by which USP44 protects genomic integrity and prevents tumors.

    Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) occurs frequently in the human Xeroderma Pigmentosum (XP) syndrome and is characterized by deficient UV-damage repair. SCC is the most common equine ocular cancer and the only associated genetic risk factor is a UV-damage repair protein. Specifically, a missense mutation in horse DDB2 (T338M) was strongly associated with both limbal SCC and third eyelid SCC in three breeds of horses (Halflinger, Belgian, and Rocky Mountain Horses) and was hypothesized to impair binding to UV-damaged DNA. Here, we investigate DDB2-T338M mutant's capacity to recognize UV lesions in vitro and in vivo, together with human XP mutants DDB2-R273H and -K244E. We show that the recombinant DDB2-T338M assembles with DDB1, but fails to show any detectable binding to DNA substrates with or without UV lesions, due to a potential structural disruption of the rigid DNA recognition β-loop. Consistently, we demonstrate that the cellular DDB2-T338M is defective in its recruitment to focally radiated DNA damages, and in its access to chromatin. Thus, we provide direct functional evidence indicating the DDB2-T338M recapitulates molecular defects of human XP mutants, and is the causal loss-of-function allele that gives rise to equine ocular SCCs. Our findings shed new light on the mechanism of DNA recognition by UV-DDB and on the initiation of ocular malignancy.

    The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) plays crucial roles in regulation of various biological processes, including DNA repair. In mammalian global genome nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER), activation of the DDB2-associated ubiquitin ligase upon UV-induced DNA damage is necessary for efficient recognition of lesions. To date, however, the precise roles of UPS in GG-NER remain incompletely understood. Here, we show that the proteasome subunit PSMD14 and the UPS shuttle factor RAD23B can be recruited to sites with UV-induced photolesions even in the absence of XPC, suggesting that proteolysis occurs at DNA damage sites. Unexpectedly, sustained inhibition of proteasome activity results in aggregation of PSMD14 (presumably with other proteasome components) at the periphery of nucleoli, by which DDB2 is immobilized and sequestered from its lesion recognition functions. Although depletion of PSMD14 alleviates such DDB2 immobilization induced by proteasome inhibitors, recruitment of DDB2 to DNA damage sites is then severely compromised in the absence of PSMD14. Because all of these proteasome dysfunctions selectively impair removal of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers, but not (6-4) photoproducts, our results indicate that the functional integrity of the proteasome is essential for the DDB2-mediated lesion recognition sub-pathway, but not for GG-NER initiated through direct lesion recognition by XPC.

    Ribonucleoside triphosphates are often incorporated into genomic DNA during DNA replication. The accumulation of unrepaired ribonucleotides is associated with genomic instability, which is mediated by DNA topoisomerase 1 (Top1) processing of embedded ribonucleotides. The cleavage initiated by Top1 at the site of a ribonucleotide leads to the formation of a Top1-DNA cleavage complex (Top1cc), occasionally resulting in a DNA double-strand break (DSB). In humans, tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterases (TDPs) are essential repair enzymes that resolve the trapped Top1cc followed by downstream repair factors. However, there is limited cellular evidence of the involvement of TDPs in the processing of incorporated ribonucleotides in mammals. We assessed the role of TDPs in mutagenesis induced by a single ribonucleotide embedded into DNA. A supF shuttle vector site-specifically containing a single riboguanosine (rG) was introduced into the human lymphoblastoid TK6 cell line and its TDP1-, TDP2-, and TDP1/TDP2-deficient derivatives. TDP1 and TDP2 insufficiency remarkably decreased the mutant frequency caused by an embedded rG. The ratio of large deletion mutations induced by rG was also substantially lower in TDP1/TDP2-deficient cells than wild-type cells. Furthermore, the disruption of TDPs reduced the length of rG-mediated large deletion mutations. The recovery ratio of the propagated plasmid was also increased in TDP1/TDP2-deficient cells after the transfection of the shuttle vector containing rG. The results suggest that TDPs-mediated ribonucleotide processing cascade leads to unfavorable consequences, whereas in the absence of these repair factors, a more error-free processing pathway might function to suppress the ribonucleotide-induced mutagenesis. Furthermore, base substitution mutations at sites outside the position of rG were detected in the supF gene via a TDPs-independent mechanism. Overall, we provide new insights into the mechanism of mutagenesis induced by an embedded ribonucleotide in mammalian cells, which may lead to the fatal phenotype in the ribonucleotide excision repair deficiency.

    Centrin 2 is a small conserved calcium-binding protein that localizes to the centriolar distal lumen in human cells. It is required for efficient primary ciliogenesis and nucleotide excision repair (NER). Centrin 2 forms part of the xeroderma pigmentosum group C protein complex. To explore how centrin 2 contributes to these distinct processes, we mutated the four calcium-binding EF-hand domains of human centrin 2. Centrin 2 in which all four EF-hands had been mutated to ablate calcium binding (4DA mutant) was capable of supporting in vitro NER and was as effective as the wild-type protein in rescuing the UV sensitivity of centrin 2-null cells. However, we found that mutation of any of the EF-hand domains impaired primary ciliogenesis in human TERT-RPE1 cells to the same extent as deletion of centrin 2. Phenotypic analysis of the 4DA mutant revealed defects in centrosome localization, centriole satellite assembly, ciliary assembly and function and in interactions with POC5 and SFI1. These observations indicate that centrin 2 requires calcium-binding capacity for its primary ciliogenesis functions, but not for NER, and suggest that these functions require centrin 2 to be capable of forming complexes with partner proteins.This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.

    DNA polymerases often incorporate non-canonical nucleotide, i.e., ribonucleoside triphosphates into the genomic DNA. Aberrant accumulation of ribonucleotides in the genome causes various cellular abnormalities. Here, we show the possible role of human nucleotide excision repair (NER) and DNA polymerase η (Pol η) in processing of a single ribonucleotide embedded into DNA. We found that the reconstituted NER system can excise the oxidized ribonucleotide on the plasmid DNA. Taken together with the evidence that Pol η accurately bypasses a ribonucleotide, i.e., riboguanosine (rG) or its oxidized derivative (8-oxo-rG) in vitro, we further assessed the mutagenic potential of the embedded ribonucleotide in human cells lacking NER or Pol η. A single rG on the supF reporter gene predominantly induced large deletion mutations. An embedded 8-oxo-rG caused base substitution mutations at the 3'-neighboring base rather than large deletions in wild-type cells. The disruption of XPA, an essential factor for NER, or Pol η leads to the increased mutant frequency of 8-oxo-rG. Furthermore, the frequency of 8-oxo-rG-mediated large deletions was increased by the loss of Pol η, but not XPA. Collectively, our results suggest that base oxidation of the embedded ribonucleotide enables processing of the ribonucleotide via alternative DNA repair and damage tolerance pathways.

    Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a versatile DNA repair pathway that eliminates various helix-distorting base lesions such as ultraviolet (UV)-induced photolesions. Several recessive human disorders, such as xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), are caused by hereditary defects in NER, implying that the pathway plays critical roles in suppressing diverse pathogenic processes, including carcinogenesis. In general, discrimination of lesion sites from intact DNA, which is present in vast excess, is a key determinant of the overall efficiency of DNA repair. In mammalian cells, global genomic NER lesion recognition is initiated by the XPC protein complex, which achieves broad DNA-binding specificity by sensing destabilized base pairs rather than lesions per se. To avert unnecessary incisions at lesion-free sites, and thereby ensure the fidelity of the repair system, transcription factor IIH and the XPA protein then verify the presence of relevant lesions at suspicious sites bound by XPC. In the case of UV-induced photolesions, a specialized lesion sensor called UV-damaged DNA-binding protein (UV-DDB) contributes to efficient lesion recognition and the recruitment of XPC to lesion sites. The ubiquitin-proteasome system plays a crucial role in the handoff of lesions from UV-DDB to XPC and the subsequent NER process. In addition, recognition of lesions targeted by global genomic NER is intricately regulated by higher-order chromatin structures, which play distinct roles depending on the type of lesion.

    Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a versatile DNA repair pathway, which can remove an extremely broad range of base lesions from the genome. In mammalian global genomic NER, the XPC protein complex initiates the repair reaction by recognizing sites of DNA damage, and this depends on detection of disrupted/destabilized base pairs within the DNA duplex. A model has been proposed that XPC first interacts with unpaired bases and then the XPD ATPase/helicase in concert with XPA verifies the presence of a relevant lesion by scanning a DNA strand in 5'-3' direction. Such multi-step strategy for damage recognition would contribute to achieve both versatility and accuracy of the NER system at substantially high levels. In addition, recognition of ultraviolet light (UV)-induced DNA photolesions is facilitated by the UV-damaged DNA-binding protein complex (UV-DDB), which not only promotes recruitment of XPC to the damage sites, but also may contribute to remodeling of chromatin structures such that the DNA lesions gain access to XPC and the following repair proteins. Even in the absence of UV-DDB, however, certain types of histone modifications and/or chromatin remodeling could occur, which eventually enable XPC to find sites with DNA lesions. Exploration of novel factors involved in regulation of the DNA damage recognition process is now ongoing.

    Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare genetic disease characterized by the deficiency of the cellular response and repair pathway for DNA interstrand crosslink (ICL) damage. Although recent studies have revealed the detailed molecular functions of FA proteins encoded by 22 genes, the mechanism of occurrence of endogenous ICLs in the human body remains poorly understood. In this short review, we summarize the potential endogenous sources of ICLs counteracted by FA proteins, and provide perspectives on the unanswered questions regarding FA.

    The p300 and CBP histone acetyltransferases are recruited to DNA double-strand break (DSB) sites where they induce histone acetylation, thereby influencing the chromatin structure and DNA repair process. Whether p300/CBP at DSB sites also acetylate non-histone proteins, and how their acetylation affects DSB repair, remain unknown. Here we show that p300/CBP acetylate RAD52, a human homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair protein, at DSB sites. Using in vitro acetylated RAD52, we identified 13 potential acetylation sites in RAD52 by a mass spectrometry analysis. An immunofluorescence microscopy analysis revealed that RAD52 acetylation at DSBs sites is counteracted by SIRT2- and SIRT3-mediated deacetylation, and that non-acetylated RAD52 initially accumulates at DSB sites, but dissociates prematurely from them. In the absence of RAD52 acetylation, RAD51, which plays a central role in HR, also dissociates prematurely from DSB sites, and hence HR is impaired. Furthermore, inhibition of ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) protein by siRNA or inhibitor treatment demonstrated that the acetylation of RAD52 at DSB sites is dependent on the ATM protein kinase activity, through the formation of RAD52, p300/CBP, SIRT2, and SIRT3 foci at DSB sites. Our findings clarify the importance of RAD52 acetylation in HR and its underlying mechanism.

    BACKGROUND: Most patients with xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group D (XP-D) from Western countries suffer from neurological symptoms, whereas Japanese patients display only skin manifestations without neurological symptoms. We have previously suggested that these differences in clinical manifestations in XP-D patients are attributed partly to a predominant mutation in ERCC2, and the allele frequency of S541R is highest in Japan. METHODS: We diagnosed a child with mild case of XP-D by the evaluation of DNA repair activity and whole-genome sequencing, and followed her ten years. RESULTS: Skin cancer, mental retardation, and neurological symptoms were not observed. Her minimal erythema dose was 41 mJ/cm(2) , which was slightly lower than that of healthy Japanese volunteers. The patient's cells showed sixfold hypersensitivity to UV in comparison with normal cells. Post-UV unscheduled DNA synthesis was 20.4%, and post-UV recovery of RNA synthesis was 58% of non-irradiated samples, which was lower than that of normal fibroblasts. Genome sequence analysis indicated that the patient harbored a compound heterozygous mutation of c.1621A>C and c.591_594del, resulting in p.S541R and p.Y197* in ERCC2: then, patient was diagnosed with XP-D. Y197* has not been described before. CONCLUSION: Her mild skin manifestations might be attributed to the mutational site on her genome and daily strict sun protection. c.1621A>C might be a founder mutation of ERCC2 among Japanese XP-D patients, as it was identified most frequently in Japanese XP-D patients and it has not been found elsewhere outside Japan.

    UV-DDB, an initiation factor for the nucleotide excision repair pathway, recognizes 6-4PP lesions through a base flipping mechanism. As genomic DNA is almost entirely accommodated within nucleosomes, the flipping of the 6-4PP bases is supposed to be extremely difficult if the lesion occurs in a nucleosome, especially on the strand directly contacting the histone surface. Here we report that UV-DDB binds efficiently to nucleosomal 6-4PPs that are rotationally positioned on the solvent accessible or occluded surface. We determined the crystal structures of nucleosomes containing 6-4PPs in these rotational positions, and found that the 6-4PP DNA regions were flexibly disordered, especially in the strand exposed to the solvent. This characteristic of 6-4PP may facilitate UV-DDB binding to the damaged nucleosome. We present the first atomic-resolution pictures of the detrimental DNA cross-links of neighboring pyrimidine bases within the nucleosome, and provide the mechanistic framework for lesion recognition by UV-DDB in chromatin.

    The xeroderma pigmentosum group C (XPC) protein complex is a key factor that detects DNA damage and initiates nucleotide excision repair (NER) in mammalian cells. Although biochemical and structural studies have elucidated the interaction of XPC with damaged DNA, the mechanism of its regulation in vivo remains to be understood in more details. Here, we show that the XPC protein undergoes modification by small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) proteins and the lack of this modification compromises the repair of UV-induced DNA photolesions. In the absence of SUMOylation, XPC is normally recruited to the sites with photolesions, but then immobilized profoundly by the UV-damaged DNA-binding protein (UV-DDB) complex. Since the absence of UV-DDB alleviates the NER defect caused by impaired SUMOylation of XPC, we propose that this modification is critical for functional interactions of XPC with UV-DDB, which facilitate the efficient damage handover between the two damage recognition factors and subsequent initiation of NER.

    In mammalian nucleotide excision repair, the DDB1-DDB2 complex recognizes UV-induced DNA photolesions and facilitates recruitment of the XPC complex. Upon binding to damaged DNA, the Cullin 4 ubiquitin ligase associated with DDB1-DDB2 is activated and ubiquitinates DDB2 and XPC. The structurally disordered N-terminal tail of DDB2 contains seven lysines identified as major sites for ubiquitination that target the protein for proteasomal degradation; however, the precise biological functions of these modifications remained unknown. By exogenous expression of mutant DDB2 proteins in normal human fibroblasts, here we show that the N-terminal tail of DDB2 is involved in regulation of cellular responses to UV. By striking contrast with behaviors of exogenous DDB2, the endogenous DDB2 protein was stabilized even after UV irradiation as a function of the XPC expression level. Furthermore, XPC competitively suppressed ubiquitination of DDB2 in vitro, and this effect was significantly promoted by centrin-2, which augments the DNA damage-recognition activity of XPC. Based on these findings, we propose that in cells exposed to UV, DDB2 is protected by XPC from ubiquitination and degradation in a stochastic manner; thus XPC allows DDB2 to initiate multiple rounds of repair events, thereby contributing to the persistence of cellular DNA repair capacity.

    For organisms, a fundamental problem is how the huge genome can be searched appropriately for DNA damage in order to prevent genome instability and/or cell death. In mammalian nucleotide excision repair (NER), this process involves multiple protein factors containing the xeroderma pigmentosum gene products (UV-DDB, XPC, TFIIH), which sense different aspects of DNA structural abnormalities, respectively. Coordinated stepwise actions of these factors contribute to simultaneous achievement of versatility, efficiency and accuracy of the DNA quality control for NER.

    Centrin-2 is an evolutionarily conserved, calmodulin-related protein, which is involved in multiple cellular functions including centrosome regulation and nucleotide excision repair (NER) of DNA. Particularly to exert the latter function, complex formation with the XPC protein, the pivotal NER damage recognition factor, is crucial. Here, we show that the C-terminal half of centrin-2, containing two calcium-binding EF-hand motifs, is necessary and sufficient for both its localization to the centrosome and interaction with XPC. In XPC-deficient cells, nuclear localization of overexpressed centrin-2 largely depends on co-overexpression of XPC, and mutational analyses of the C-terminal domain suggest that XPC and the major binding partner in the centrosome share a common binding surface on the centrin-2 molecule. On the other hand, the N-terminal domain of centrin-2 also contains two EF-hand motifs but shows only low-binding affinity for calcium ions. Although the N-terminal domain is dispensable for enhancement of the DNA damage recognition activity of XPC, it contributes to augmenting rather weak physical interaction between XPC and XPA, another key factor involved in NER. These results suggest that centrin-2 may have evolved to bridge two protein factors, one with high affinity and the other with low affinity, thereby allowing delicate regulation of various biological processes.

    DNA double-strand breaks (DSB) occur frequently during replication in sister chromatids and are dramatically increased when cells are exposed to chemotherapeutic agents including camptothecin. Such DSBs are efficiently repaired specifically by homologous recombination (HR) with the intact sister chromatid. HR, therefore, plays pivotal roles in cellular proliferation and cellular tolerance to camptothecin. Mammalian cells carry several structure-specific endonucleases, such as Xpf-Ercc1 and Mus81-Eme1, in which Xpf and Mus81 are the essential subunits for enzymatic activity. Here, we show the functional overlap between Xpf and Mus81 by conditionally inactivating Xpf in the chicken DT40 cell line, which has no Mus81 ortholog. Although mammalian cells deficient in either Xpf or Mus81 are viable, Xpf inactivation in DT40 cells was lethal, resulting in a marked increase in the number of spontaneous chromosome breaks. Similarly, inactivation of both Xpf and Mus81 in human HeLa cells and murine embryonic stem cells caused numerous spontaneous chromosome breaks. Furthermore, the phenotype of Xpf-deficient DT40 cells was reversed by ectopic expression of human Mus81-Eme1 or human Xpf-Ercc1 heterodimers. These observations indicate the functional overlap of Xpf-Ercc1 and Mus81-Eme1 in the maintenance of genomic DNA. Both Mus81-Eme1 and Xpf-Ercc1 contribute to the completion of HR, as evidenced by the data that the expression of Mus81-Eme1 or Xpf-Ercc1 diminished the number of camptothecin-induced chromosome breaks in Xpf-deficient DT40 cells, and to preventing early steps in HR by deleting XRCC3 suppressed the nonviability of Xpf-deficient DT40 cells. In summary, Xpf and Mus81 have a substantially overlapping function in completion of HR.

    The DDB1-CUL4-RBX1 (CRL4) ubiquitin ligase family regulates a diverse set of cellular pathways through dedicated substrate receptors (DCAFs). The DCAF DDB2 detects UV-induced pyrimidine dimers in the genome and facilitates nucleotide excision repair. We provide the molecular basis for DDB2 receptor-mediated cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer recognition in chromatin. The structures of the fully assembled DDB1-DDB2-CUL4A/B-RBX1 (CRL4(DDB2)) ligases reveal that the mobility of the ligase arm creates a defined ubiquitination zone around the damage, which precludes direct ligase activation by DNA lesions. Instead, the COP9 signalosome (CSN) mediates the CRL4(DDB2) inhibition in a CSN5 independent, nonenzymatic, fashion. In turn, CSN inhibition is relieved upon DNA damage binding to the DDB2 module within CSN-CRL4(DDB2). The Cockayne syndrome A DCAF complex crystal structure shows that CRL4(DCAF(WD40)) ligases share common architectural features. Our data support a general mechanism of ligase activation, which is induced by CSN displacement from CRL4(DCAF) on substrate binding to the DCAF.

    Translesion DNA synthesis, a process orchestrated by monoubiquitinated PCNA, is critical for DNA damage tolerance. While the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme RAD6 and ubiquitin ligase RAD18 are known to monoubiquitinate PCNA, how they are regulated by DNA damage is not fully understood. We show that NBS1 (mutated in Nijmegen breakage syndrome) binds to RAD18 after UV irradiation and mediates the recruitment of RAD18 to sites of DNA damage. Disruption of NBS1 abolished RAD18-dependent PCNA ubiquitination and Polη focus formation, leading to elevated UV sensitivity and mutation. Unexpectedly, the RAD18-interacting domain of NBS1, which was mapped to its C terminus, shares structural and functional similarity with the RAD18-interacting domain of RAD6. These domains of NBS1 and RAD6 allow the two proteins to interact with RAD18 homodimers simultaneously and are crucial for Polη-dependent UV tolerance. Thus, in addition to chromosomal break repair, NBS1 plays a key role in translesion DNA synthesis.

    We showed that XPC complex, which is a DNA damage detector for nucleotide excision repair, stimulates activity of thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG) that initiates base excision repair. XPC appeared to facilitate the enzymatic turnover of TDG by promoting displacement from its own product abasic site, although the precise mechanism underlying this stimulation has not been clarified. Here we show that XPC has only marginal effects on the activity of E. coli TDG homolog (EcMUG), which remains bound to the abasic site like human TDG but does not significantly interacts with XPC. On the contrary, XPC significantly stimulates the activities of sumoylated TDG and SMUG1, both of which exhibit quite different enzymatic kinetics from unmodified TDG but interact with XPC. These results point to importance of physical interactions for stimulation of DNA glycosylases by XPC and have implications in the molecular mechanisms underlying mutagenesis and carcinogenesis in XP-C patients.

    For mammalian nucleotide excision repair (NER), DNA lesions are recognized in at least two steps involving detection of unpaired bases by the XPC protein complex and the subsequent verification of injured bases. Although lesion verification is important to ensure high damage discrimination and the accuracy of the repair system, it has been unclear how this is accomplished. Here, we show that damage verification involves scanning of a DNA strand from the site where XPC is initially bound. Translocation by the NER machinery exhibits a 5'-to-3' directionality, strongly suggesting involvement of the XPD helicase, a component of TFIIH. Furthermore, the initial orientation of XPC binding is crucial in that only one DNA strand is selected to search for the presence of lesions. Our results dissect the intricate molecular mechanism of NER and provide insights into a strategy for mammalian cells to survey large genomes to detect DNA damage.

    Although the basic principle of nucleotide excision repair (NER), which can eliminate various DNA lesions, have been dissected at the genetic, biochemical and cellular levels, the important in vivo regulation of the critical damage recognition step is poorly understood. Here we analyze the in vivo dynamics of the essential NER damage recognition factor XPC fused to the green fluorescence protein (GFP). Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching analysis revealed that the UV-induced transient immobilization of XPC, reflecting its actual engagement in NER, is regulated in a biphasic manner depending on the number of (6-4) photoproducts and titrated by the number of functional UV-DDB molecules. A similar biphasic UV-induced immobilization of TFIIH was observed using XPB-GFP. Surprisingly, subsequent integration of XPA into the NER complex appears to follow only the low UV dose immobilization of XPC. Our results indicate that when only a small number of (6-4) photoproducts are generated, the UV-DDB-dependent damage recognition pathway predominates over direct recognition by XPC, and they also suggest the presence of rate-limiting regulatory steps in NER prior to the assembly of XPA.

  • Mutagenic radioadaptation in a human lymphoblastoid cell line.

    We investigated the mutagenic radioadaptive response of human lymphoblastoid TK6 cells by pretreating them with a low dose (5 cGy) of X-rays followed by a high (2 Gy) dose 6h later. Pretreatment reduced the 2-Gy-induced mutation frequency (MF) of the thymidine kinase (TK) gene (18.3 x 10(-6)) to 62% of the original level (11.4 x 10(-6)). A loss of heterozygosity (LOH) detection analysis applied to the isolated TK(-) mutants revealed the mutational events as non-LOH (resulting mostly from a point mutation in the TK gene), hemizygous LOH (resulting from a chromosomal deletion), or homozygous LOH (resulting from homologous recombination (HR) between chromosomes). For non-LOH events, pretreatment decreased the frequency to 27% of the original level (from 7.1 x 10(-6) to 1.9 x 10(-6)). cDNAs prepared from the non-LOH mutants revealed that the decrease was due mainly to the repression of base substitutions. The frequency of hemizygous LOH events, however, was not significantly altered by pretreatment. Mapping analysis of chromosome 17 demonstrated that the distribution and the extent of hemizygous LOH events were also not significantly influenced by pretreatment. For homozygous LOH events, pretreatment reduced the frequency to 61% of the original level (from 5.1 x 10(-6) to 3.1 x 10(-6)), reflecting an enhancement in HR repair of DNA double-strand breaks. Our findings suggest that the radioadaptive response in TK6 cells follows mainly from mutations at the base-sequence level, not the chromosome level.

  • In vivo destabilization and functional defects of the xeroderma pigmentosum C protein caused by a pathogenic missense mutation.

    Xeroderma pigmentosum group C (XPC) protein plays an essential role in DNA damage recognition in mammalian global genome nucleotide excision repair (NER). Here, we analyze the functional basis of NER inactivation caused by a single amino acid substitution (Trp to Ser at position 690) in XPC, previously identified in the XPC patient XP13PV. The Trp690Ser change dramatically affects the in vivo stability of the XPC protein, thereby causing a significant reduction of its steady-state level in XP13PV fibroblasts. Despite normal heterotrimeric complex formation and physical interactions with other NER factors, the mutant XPC protein lacks binding affinity for both undamaged and damaged DNA. Thus, this single amino acid substitution is sufficient to compromise XPC function through both quantitative and qualitative alterations of the protein. Although the mutant XPC fails to recognize damaged DNA, it is still capable of accumulating in a UV-damaged DNA-binding protein (UV-DDB)-dependent manner to UV-damaged subnuclear domains. However, the NER factors transcription factor IIH and XPA failed to colocalize stably with the mutant XPC. As well as highlighting the importance of UV-DDB in recruiting XPC to UV-damaged sites, these findings demonstrate the role of DNA binding by XPC in the assembly of subsequent NER intermediate complexes.

    Modification of cellular proteins by the small ubiquitin-like modifier SUMO is important in regulating various cellular events. Many different nuclear proteins are targeted by SUMO, and the functional consequences of this modification are diverse. For most proteins, however, the functional and structural consequences of modification by specific SUMO isomers are unclear. Conjugation of SUMO to thymine-DNA glycosylase (TDG) induces the dissociation of TDG from its product DNA. Structure determination of the TDG central region conjugated to SUMO-1 previously suggested a mechanism in which the SUMOylation-induced conformational change in the C-terminal region of TDG releases TDG from tight binding to its product DNA. Here, we have determined the crystal structure of the central region of TDG conjugated to SUMO-3. The overall structure of SUMO-3-conjugated TDG is similar to the previously reported structure of TDG conjugated to SUMO-1, despite the relatively low level of amino acid sequence similarity between SUMO-3 and SUMO-1. The two structures revealed that the sequence of TDG that resembles the SUMO-binding motif (SBM) can form an intermolecular beta-sheet with either SUMO-1 or SUMO-3. Structural comparison with the canonical SBM shows that this SBM-like sequence of TDG retains all of the characteristic interactions of the SBM, indicating sequence diversity in the SBM.

  • Centrin 2 stimulates nucleotide excision repair by interacting with xeroderma pigmentosum group C protein.
    Ryotaro Nishi, Yuki Okuda, Eriko Watanabe, Toshio Mori, Shigenori Iwai, Chikahide Masutani, Kaoru Sugasawa, Fumio Hanaoka
    Xeroderma pigmentosum group C (XPC) protein plays a key role in DNA damage recognition in global genome nucleotide excision repair (NER). The protein forms in vivo a heterotrimeric complex involving one of the two human homologs of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad23p and centrin 2, a centrosomal protein. Because centrin 2 is dispensable for the cell-free NER reaction, its role in NER has been unclear. Binding experiments with a series of truncated XPC proteins allowed the centrin 2 binding domain to be mapped to a presumed alpha-helical region near the C terminus, and three amino acid substitutions in this domain abrogated interaction with centrin 2. Human cell lines stably expressing the mutant XPC protein exhibited a significant reduction in global genome NER activity. Furthermore, centrin 2 enhanced the cell-free NER dual incision and damaged DNA binding activities of XPC, which likely require physical interaction between XPC and centrin 2. These results reveal a novel vital function for centrin 2 in NER, the potentiation of damage recognition by XPC.

    Members of the small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) family can be covalently attached to the lysine residue of a target protein through an enzymatic pathway similar to that used in ubiquitin conjugation, and are involved in various cellular events that do not rely on degradative signalling via the proteasome or lysosome. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms of SUMO-modification-induced protein functional transfer. During DNA mismatch repair, SUMO conjugation of the uracil/thymine DNA glycosylase TDG promotes the release of TDG from the abasic (AP) site created after base excision, and coordinates its transfer to AP endonuclease 1, which catalyses the next step in the repair pathway. Here we report the crystal structure of the central region of human TDG conjugated to SUMO-1 at 2.1 A resolution. The structure reveals a helix protruding from the protein surface, which presumably interferes with the product DNA and thus promotes the dissociation of TDG from the DNA molecule. This helix is formed by covalent and non-covalent contacts between TDG and SUMO-1. The non-covalent contacts are also essential for release from the product DNA, as verified by mutagenesis.

    The xeroderma pigmentosum group C (XPC) protein complex plays a key role in recognizing DNA damage throughout the genome for mammalian nucleotide excision repair (NER). Ultraviolet light (UV)-damaged DNA binding protein (UV-DDB) is another complex that appears to be involved in the recognition of NER-inducing damage, although the precise role it plays and its relationship to XPC remain to be elucidated. Here we show that XPC undergoes reversible ubiquitylation upon UV irradiation of cells and that this depends on the presence of functional UV-DDB activity. XPC and UV-DDB were demonstrated to interact physically, and both are polyubiquitylated by the recombinant UV-DDB-ubiquitin ligase complex. The polyubiquitylation altered the DNA binding properties of XPC and UV-DDB and appeared to be required for cell-free NER of UV-induced (6-4) photoproducts specifically when UV-DDB was bound to the lesion. Our results strongly suggest that ubiquitylation plays a critical role in the transfer of the UV-induced lesion from UV-DDB to XPC.

  • Nucleosomal structure of undamaged DNA regions suppresses the non-specific DNA binding of the XPC complex.
    Takeshi Yasuda, Kaoru Sugasawa, Yuichiro Shimizu, Shigenori Iwai, Tadahiro Shiomi, Fumio Hanaoka
    The XPC protein complex is a DNA damage detector of human nucleotide excision repair (NER). Although the XPC complex specifically binds to certain damaged sites, it also binds to undamaged DNA in a non-specific manner. The addition of a large excess of undamaged naked DNA competitively inhibited the specific binding of the XPC complex to (6-4) photoproducts and the NER dual incision step in cell-free extracts. In contrast, the addition of undamaged nucleosomal DNA as a competitor suppressed both of these inhibitory effects. Although nucleosomes positioned on the damaged site inhibited the binding of the XPC complex, the presence of nucleosomes in undamaged DNA regions may help specific binding of the XPC complex to damaged sites by excluding its non-specific binding to undamaged DNA regions.

  • Relative levels of the two mammalian Rad23 homologs determine composition and stability of the xeroderma pigmentosum group C protein complex.

    Mammalian cells express two Rad23 homologs, HR23A and HR23B, which have been implicated in regulation of proteolysis via the ubiquitin/proteasome pathway. Recently, the proteins have been shown to stabilize xeroderma pigmentosum group C (XPC) protein that is involved in DNA damage recognition for nucleotide excision repair (NER). Because the vast majority of XPC forms a complex with HR23B rather than HR23A, we investigated possible differences between the two Rad23 homologs in terms of their effects on the XPC protein. In wild-type mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), endogenous XPC was found to be relatively stable, while its steady-state level and stability appeared significantly reduced by targeted disruption of the mHR23B gene, but not by that of mHR23A. Loss of both mHR23 genes caused a strong further reduction of the XPC protein level. Quantification of the two mHR23 proteins revealed that in normal cells mHR23B is actually approximately 10 times more abundant than mHR23A. In addition, overexpression of mHR23A in the mHR23A/B double knock out cells restored not only the steady-state level and stability of the XPC protein, but also cellular NER activity to near wild-type levels. These results indicate that the two Rad23 homologs are largely functionally equivalent in NER, and that the difference in expression levels explains for a major part the difference in complex formation with as well as stabilization effects on XPC.

  • Nucleotide excision repair of 5-formyluracil in vitro is enhanced by the presence of mismatched bases.
    Katsuhito Kino, Yuichiro Shimizu, Kaoru Sugasawa, Hiroshi Sugiyama, Fumio Hanaoka
    5-Formyluracil (fU) is a major thymine lesion produced by reactive oxygen radicals and photosensitized oxidation. Although this residue is a potentially mutagenic lesion and is removed by several base excision repair enzymes, it is unknown whether fU is the substrate of nucleotide excision repair (NER). Here, we analyzed the binding specificity of XPC-HR23B, which initiates NER, and cell-free NER activity on fU opposite four different bases. The result of the gel mobility shift assay showed that XPC-HR23B binds the fU-containing substrates in the following order: fU:C > fU:T > fU:G > fU:A. Furthermore, in the presence of XPC-HR23B, the dual incision activity was the same as the order of the binding affinity of XPC-HR23B to fU. Therefore, it is concluded that even fU, regarded as a shape mimic of thymine, can be recognized as a substrate of NER incision, and the efficiency depends on instability of the base pair.

    Ubiquitination, a modification in which single or multiple ubiquitin molecules are attached to a protein, serves signaling functions that control several cellular processes. The ubiquitination signal is recognized by downstream effectors, many of which carry a ubiquitin-interacting motif (UIM). Such interactions can be modulated by regulators carrying a ubiquitin-like (UbL) domain, which binds UIM by mimicking ubiquitination. Of them, HR23B regulates the proteasomal targeting of ubiquitinated substrates, DNA repair factors, and other proteins. Here we report the structure of the UIM of the proteasome subunit S5a bound to the UbL domain of HR23B. The UbL domain presents one hydrophobic and two polar contact sites for interaction with UIM. The residues in these contact sites are well conserved in ubiquitin, but ubiquitin also presents a histidine at the interface. The pH-dependent protonation of this residue interferes with the access of ubiquitin to the UIM and the ubiquitin-associated domain (UBA), and its mutation to a smaller residue increases the affinity of ubiquitin for UIM.

  • Thymine-rich single-stranded DNA activates Mcm4/6/7 helicase on Y-fork and bubble-like substrates.
    Zhiying You, Yukio Ishimi, Takeshi Mizuno, Kaoru Sugasawa, Fumio Hanaoka, Hisao Masai
    The presence of multiple clusters of runs of asymmetric adenine or thymine is a feature commonly found in eukaryotic replication origins. Here we report that the helicase and ATPase activities of the mammalian Mcm4/6/7 complex are activated specifically by thymine stretches. The Mcm helicase is specifically activated by a synthetic bubble structure which mimics an activated replication origin, as well as by a Y-fork structure, provided that a single-stranded DNA region of sufficient length is present in the unwound segment or 3' tail, respectively, and that it carries clusters of thymines. Sequences derived from the human lamin B2 origin can serve as a potent activator for the Mcm helicase, and substitution of its thymine clusters with guanine leads to loss of this activation. At the fork, Mcm displays marked processivity, expected for a replicative helicase. These findings lead us to propose that selective activation by stretches of thymine sequences of a fraction of Mcm helicases loaded onto chromatin may be the determinant for selection of initiation sites on mammalian genomes.

  • Xeroderma pigmentosum group C protein interacts physically and functionally with thymine DNA glycosylase.
    Yuichiro Shimizu, Shigenori Iwai, Fumio Hanaoka, Kaoru Sugasawa
    The XPC-HR23B complex recognizes various helix-distorting lesions in DNA and initiates global genome nucleotide excision repair. Here we describe a novel functional interaction between XPC-HR23B and thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG), which initiates base excision repair (BER) of G/T mismatches generated by spontaneous deamination of 5-methylcytosine. XPC-HR23B stimulated TDG activity by promoting the release of TDG from abasic sites that result from the excision of mismatched T bases. In the presence of AP endonuclease (APE), XPC-HR23B had an additive effect on the enzymatic turnover of TDG without significantly inhibiting the subsequent action of APE. Our observations suggest that XPC-HR23B may participate in BER of G/T mismatches, thereby contributing to the suppression of spontaneous mutations that may be one of the contributory factors for the promotion of carcinogenesis in xeroderma pigmentosum genetic complementation group C patients.

    The xeroderma pigmentosum group C (XPC) protein specifically involved in genome-wide damage recognition for nucleotide excision repair (NER) was purified as a tight complex with HR23B, one of the two mammalian homologs of RAD23 in budding yeast. This XPC-HR23B complex exhibits strong binding affinity for single-stranded DNA, as well as preferential binding to various types of damaged DNA. To examine the structure-function relationship of XPC, a series of truncated mutant proteins were generated and assayed for various binding activities. The two domains participating in binding to HR23B and damaged DNA, respectively, were mapped within the carboxy-terminal half of XPC, which also contains an evolutionary conserved amino acid sequence homologous to the yeast RAD4 protein. We established that the carboxy-terminal 125 amino acids are dispensable for both HR23B and damaged DNA binding, while interactions with transcription factor IIH (TFIIH) are significantly impaired by truncation of this domain. Furthermore, deletion of the extreme carboxy-terminal domain totally abolished XPC activity in the cell-free NER reaction. These results suggest that following initial damage recognition, the carboxy terminus of XPC may be essential for the recruitment of TFIIH, and that most truncation mutations identified in XP-C patients result in non-functional proteins.

  • Developmental defects and male sterility in mice lacking the ubiquitin-like DNA repair gene mHR23B.

    mHR23B encodes one of the two mammalian homologs of Saccharomyces cerevisiae RAD23, a ubiquitin-like fusion protein involved in nucleotide excision repair (NER). Part of mHR23B is complexed with the XPC protein, and this heterodimer functions as the main damage detector and initiator of global genome NER. While XPC defects exist in humans and mice, mutations for mHR23A and mHR23B are not known. Here, we present a mouse model for mHR23B. Unlike XPC-deficient cells, mHR23B(-/-) mouse embryonic fibroblasts are not UV sensitive and retain the repair characteristics of wild-type cells. In agreement with the results of in vitro repair studies, this indicates that mHR23A can functionally replace mHR23B in NER. Unexpectedly, mHR23B(-/-) mice show impaired embryonic development and a high rate (90%) of intrauterine or neonatal death. Surviving animals display a variety of abnormalities, including retarded growth, facial dysmorphology, and male sterility. Such abnormalities are not observed in XPC and other NER-deficient mouse mutants and point to a separate function of mHR23B in development. This function may involve regulation of protein stability via the ubiquitin/proteasome pathway and is not or only in part compensated for by mHR23A.

  • A molecular mechanism for DNA damage recognition by the xeroderma pigmentosum group C protein complex.
    Kaoru Sugasawa, Yuichiro Shimizu, Shigenori Iwai, Fumio Hanaoka
    The XPC-HR23B complex is involved in DNA damage recognition and the initiation of global genomic nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER). Our previous studies demonstrate that XPC-HR23B recognizes and binds DNA containing a helix distortion, regardless of the presence or absence of damaged bases. Here, we describe an extended analysis of the DNA binding specificity of XPC-HR23B using various defined DNA substrates. Although XPC-HR23B showed significantly higher affinity for single-stranded DNA than double-stranded DNA, specific secondary structures of DNA, involving a single- and double-strand junction, were strongly preferred by the complex. This indicates that the presence of bases, which cannot form normal Watson-Crick base pairs in double-stranded DNA, is a critical factor in determining the specificity of XPC-HR23B binding. A DNase I footprint analysis, using a looped DNA substrate, revealed that a single XPC-HR23B complex protected a distorted site in an asymmetrical manner, consistent with the preferred secondary structure. The specific binding of XPC-HR23B is undoubtedly an important molecular process, based on which NER machinery detects a wide variety of lesions that vary in terms of chemical structure during DNA repair.

    The XPC-HR23B complex is a prime candidate for the initial damage recognition step during global genome nucleotide excision repair. A specific interaction between the XPC-HR23B complex and various types of damaged DNA substrates has been demonstrated in recent work by electrophoretic mobility shift assays or immunoprecipitation. Although these studies allowed the estimation of relative binding affinities for the different types of lesions, the presence of large amounts of competitor DNA or the need for glutaraldehyde fixation prevented the quantification of equilibrium constants. We have performed a quantitative study on the binding of XPC to damaged DNA using fluorescence anisotropy measurements. The XPC-HR23B complex binds with high affinity (K(D) approximately 1-3 nM) to fluorescent 36 bp DNA fragments containing a single cisplatin 1,3-intrastrand adduct or a six-nucleotide mispaired region. From stoichiometric titration experiments, it is concluded that approximately 70% of the XPC-HR23B preparation is active in DNA binding. Binding experiments employing fluorescent probes with a single defined photoproduct reveal a 30-fold preference of XPC for 6,4-photoproducts as compared to a cyclobutane dimer. Competition experiments with undamaged and damaged plasmid DNA indicate that the XPC-HR23B complex discriminates between damaged and undamaged sites with high specificity. The specificity factor is between 100 and 3000, depending on the number of nonspecific sites considered in the calculations. Upon addition of XPA to the XPC binding reaction mixtures, it was not possible to detect cooperative ternary complex formation on the platinated 36 bp probe.

  • Single-molecule direct visualization of DNA repair proteins on chromatin

    To elucidate how mammalian (human) DNA repair proteins recognize base lesions, we performed single-molecule direct visualization of the proteins on DNA. We found that XPC-RAD23B protein complex, which is known to be responsible for damage recognition in mammalian nucleotide excision repair, has high affinity for a lesion and performed one-dimensional bidirectional diffusion on undamaged DNA. The diffusion coefficients of the movement indicate that the protein complex does not always perform rotational tracking of the helical pitch of the DNA while moving along DNA and thus diffuses at much higher rates. The obtained results indicate that the protein complex uses these binding modes for efficient search of DNA lesions scattered throughout the genome from a vast excess of normal bases.

    To detect the DNA helix bending by a chemical approach, duplexes containing 2-O-mercaptoalkyl-β-D-arabinofuranose on both sides of the major groove were synthesized, and the effects of the cisplatin adduct, the abasic site analog, and the (6-4) photoproduct on DNA structures were investigated. A disulfide bond was formed depending on the cisplatin adduct, and dynamic DNA bending was shown for the abasic site and the (6-4) photoproduct. Using the bent structure obtained by this method, the model proposed for the handover of damaged DNA from the UV-DDB protein to the XPC protein in the nucleotide excision repair was validated.

    Thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG) is a base excision repair (BER) enzyme that interacts with the small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO)-targeted ubiquitin E3 ligase RNF4 and functions in the active DNA demethylation pathway. Here we found that the majority of TDG was SUMOylated in cells undergoing mitosis, while both SUMOylated and non-modified TDG were eliminated in cells arrested at S phase. In vitro and in vivo binding analyses revealed that TDG interacted with RNF4 in a SUMOylation-independent manner. In RNF4-depleted cells, both forms of TDG were efficiently degraded, suggesting that RNF4 was not the primary E3 ligase for controlling TDG stability. Our findings would not only be important for understanding posttranslational regulation of TDG but also provide implications for the TDG-RNF4 interaction in BER-driven active DNA demethylation during cell cycle progression.

    To examine the possibility of ubiquitylation of the XPC protein that is specifically induced upon DNA damage, FLAG-tagged XPC (FLAG-XPC) and HA-tagged ubiquitin were simultaneously overexpressed in XP4PASV cells, which are derived from a XP group C patient and do not express endogenous XPC protein. By immunoprecipitation of FLAG-XPC from the cell extract, it was demonstrated that XPC can be indeed ubiquitylated in vivo. From similar experiments using various truncated XPC proteins, a domain in XPC was found, which is relatively more susceptible to the ubiquitylation. To investigate possible roles of the XPC ubiquitylation, we established a cell line that stably expresses a physiological amount of FLAG-XPC. When the cells were treated with DNA damaging agents such as UV and 4-NQO, a fraction of XPC became more tightly bound to chromatin, while the majority of ubiquitylated XPC could be solubilized under the same conditions. Moreover, we found that the XPC ubiquitylation occurred in a cell-cycle-independent manner, at least from the Gl/S boundary to the M phase. To explore novel factors that interact with XPC, the yeast two-hybrid screening was carried out, which resulted in the ubiquitin-like protein SUM0-1 as well as the SUMO-1 conjugating enzyme Ubc9.As done for ubiquitylation, we demonstrated that XPC can be also sumoylated in cells by simultaneous overexpression of FLAG-XPC and HA-SUMO-1. Using mouse embryonic fibroblast cells that lack both HR23A and HR23B, we established cell lines that stably express various mutant HR23B proteins. It was shown that the N-terminal ubiquitin-like domain of HR23B is essential neither for intracellular stabilization of XPC nor removal of UV-damage from the global genome.

    哺乳類のゲノム全体で働くヌクレオチド除去修復(NER)副経路において、DNA損傷認識因子として機能するXPC-HR23B複合体のDNAに対する結合特異性の詳細な解析を行なった。特定のDNA損傷や構造を部位特異的に含むDNA断片を用いてゲルシフト法やフットプリント法を行なうことにより、数個の非対合塩基(いわゆるバブル構造)があれば特に損傷が存在しなくてもXPC-HR23Bがこれを認識して結合できることが示された。すなわち、XPC-HR23BはDNA損傷そのものではなく、損傷によって誘起されるDNA構造の歪みを認識して結合すると考えられる。一方、これらのDNA基質を用いて無細胞NER反応を行なったところ、NER機構によるオリゴヌクレオチドの切り出しにはXPC-HR23Bの結合のみでは不十分で、バブル構造中に実際に損傷塩基が存在することが必要であった。以上の結果から、NERにおける損傷認識は(1)XPC-HR23BによるDNAの構造異常の認識、および(2)それに続く損傷塩基の確認、という少なくとも2段階の機構で行われていることが示された。さらに、XPC-HR23Bと相互作用する因子を探索する目的で、XPC蛋白質をbaitとして酵母2ハイブリッド法によるスクリーニングを行ない、複数のポジティブクローンを得た。現在、これらの因子とXPC-HR23Bとの相互作用の意義について、解析を進めている。さらに、XPCや別の損傷結合因子として知られるDDB因子のサブユニットにFLAGタグを融合したものを過剰発現する細胞株の単離を進めており、これを用いて相互作用する因子の解析を今後行なう予定である。

    RAD23ホモローグと26SプロテアソームのサブユニットS5a蛋白質との相互作用の意義を探る目的で、無細胞蛋白質分解反応系を用いた解析を行った。その結果、ユビキチン-プロテアソームを介した蛋白分解反応に対して、RAD23ホモローグが阻害的に作用することを見いだした。これは、RAD23ホモローグがS5aと結合することによって、ユビキチン化された分解基質蛋白質のプロテアソームとの相互作用を拮抗的に阻害した結果であると考えられた。即ち、RAD23ホモローグはプロテアソームによる蛋白質分解反応に対して、新しいタイプの制御因子として機能する可能性を持つことが示唆された。一方、HR23A、およびHR23Bそれぞれのノックアウトマウスを交配して二重欠損マウスの作成を試みた。二重欠損マウスは個体レベルでは致死的であると考えられたが、8.5日胚より二重欠損線維芽細胞を単離することに成功した。この二重欠損細胞はXPC欠損細胞と同等の紫外線感受性、および不定期DNA合成活性を示したが、紫外線照射後のRNA合成の回復能は正常であったことから、XPC変異細胞と同様に転写と共役したヌクレオチド除去修復機構は正常で、ゲノム全体で働く副経路に特異的な欠損を持つことがわかった。さらに、この二重欠損細胞ではXPC蛋白質の発現量が著しく低下していたことから、RAD23ホモローグがXPC蛋白質の安定な発現に重要な役割を果たしていることが示された。以上の結果から、RAD23ホモローグはゲノム全体で機能するヌクレオチド除去修復機構に必須であると同時に、おそらく蛋白質分解系の制御を介して個体の発生、分化、成長においても重要な機能を果たしていることが強く示唆された。

    前年度までの組換え蛋白質を用いた無細胞系での実験から、C末端の125個のアミノ酸を欠失した変異XPC蛋白質は基本転写因子TFIIHとの相互作用に欠損が見られ、また無細胞ヌクレオチド除去修復反応においても不活性であることが明らかになった。そこで、この変異XPC蛋白質の細胞内での機能を解析する目的で、XP-C群細胞に変異遺伝子を導入して形質転換細胞株を樹立した。間接蛍光抗体染色により、上記のC末端欠失体、およびN末端の117個のアミノ酸を欠いた変異XPCはいずれも正常に核に移行できることを確認した。しかしながら、N末端欠失XPCを発現する細胞で紫外線抵抗性の回復が見られたのと対照的に、C末端欠失XPCを発現する細胞は親株のXPC欠損細胞と同等の紫外線感受性を示した。すなわち、無細胞系の結果と一致して、C末端部分はXPC蛋白質のヌクレオチド除去修復活性の発揮に必須であることが明らかになった。現在、C末端部分についてさらに細かい欠失変異体を作成しており、今後その構造機能相関を解析していく予定である。また、種々の変異XPC蛋白質を一過性に過剰発現して間接蛍光抗体染色を行なうことにより、XPC蛋白質の核移行に関わる配列をN末端付近に2ケ所同定した。 XPC蛋白質の活性が翻訳後修飾によって制御されている可能性を調べるため、まずXP-C群細胞にHA、またはFLAGタグを付加したXPC蛋白質のcDNAを導入して形質転換細胞株を単離した。これらの細胞株が正常細胞と同レベルのXPC蛋白質を発現していること、また紫外線抵抗性の回復からタグをつけたXPCが正常な機能を発揮できることを確認した。さらに、FLAGタグが特異的な免疫沈降に非常に有効であることを確かめたので、今後紫外線照射前後でのリン酸化の変動等を解析していく予定である。

    出芽酵母RAD23のヒト・ホモローグであるhHR23B蛋白質は、ヌクレオチド除去修復(NER)においてDNA損傷の認識に関わるXPC蛋白質と強固な複合体を形成する。我々は、酵母two-hybrid screeningにより、26Sプロテアソーム・サブユニットの一つ、S5aが.hHR23B、およびもう一つRAD23ホモローグであるhHR23Aと相互作用することを見出している。組換え蛋白質の欠失変異体を用いたbinding assayにより、hHR23BではN末端のユビキチン相同配列、S5aの側ではマルチュビキチン鎖結合部位として同定されたC末端に近い領域が、この相互作用に必要であることがわかった。さらに、細胞抽出液を用いたグリセロール密度勾配遠心、およびプロテアソーム・サブユニットに対する抗体を用いた免疫共沈降実験から、細胞内においてもhHR23Bの少なくとも一部はプロテアソームに結合していることが示唆された。一方、二つのRAD23ホモローグのそれぞれについて、ノックアウトマウスを作成レた。mHR23A欠損マウスは外見上まったく正常であったが、mHR23B欠損マウスはメンデル則からの期待値の1/10程度の頻度でしか得られず、また個体サイズも野生型と比較して明らかに小さい。しかしながら、このマウスから単離したmHR23B欠損細胞のNER能は野生型と同様であった。このことは、NERに関しては二つのRAD23ホモローグ間に機能的互換性があること、また823Bは個体の発生、成長過程において、NER獣外の何らかの重要な機能を果たしていることを示している。

    研究代表者と研究分担者は、DNA複製系及び修復系をターゲットとした新規抗がん剤の開発を目指して、以下に述べる研究を行なった。(1)前年度に引き続いて、既に確立されているSV40DNAの無細胞複製系、及び紫外線照射したSV40ミニ染色体を鋳型とする無細胞DNA修復系を用いて、100種ほどの放線菌培養上清から新たなDNA複製、及び修復阻害剤のスクリーニングを行なった。その結果、有意な阻害効果を示すサンプルを複数個、得ることが出来た。その中でDNA修復に阻害を示す4サンプルについて、DNAの損傷部位の上流および下流側に一本鎖切断を入れる反応を調べたところ、いずれもこの切断反応を阻害し、これらのサンプルがヌクレオチド除去修復反応の初期段階を阻害する活性を有していることが判明した。このステップの阻害剤は、これまで全く報告がなく、新規阻害剤の分離が期待される。(2)前年度までにDNA複製を強く阻害するものとして精製を行なっていたRK606については、構造決定の結果、大豆サポニンの一種、soyasaponin IIであることが判明した。類縁化合物のDNA複製阻害活性を比較したところ、アグリコン部分の他に、糖鎖の部分の構造も重要であること、また糖が3つ、分岐しない形で存在していると阻害活性が高いことが示された。DNA複製を阻害する化合物と、ワクシニアウイルスのdual-specific phosphatase,VH1フォスファターゼのヒトホモローグであるVHRフォスファターゼの阻害を示す化合物とが類似のスペクトルを示すことから、RK606の標的分子がフォスファターゼである可能性が示唆された。

    バキュロウイルス・ベクター系を利用して昆虫細胞中で大量発現させたヒト野生型p53蛋白質をモノクローナルカラム抗体を用いて精製し、HeLa細胞の粗抽出液を用いたSV40DNAの無細胞複製系に添加して複製阻害を起こすことを確認した。この際、複製産物の解析から、p53蛋白質による複製阻害の作用点が主に複製開始段階にあることが示唆された。同様に4種類の変異型p53蛋白質(156Pro、248Trp、273His、285Lys)を昆虫細胞内で発現、精製したが、いずれも複製阻害活性を示さなかった。以上の結果は、精製蛋白質を用いた再構成複製系においても基本的に変わらなかった。モノクローナル抗体を用いた共沈降実験により、野生型p53蛋白質はSV40T抗原と試験管内で複合体を形成することが確かめられたが、4種類の変異型p53蛋白質は無細胞複製系の条件下では、いずれもSV40T抗原に結合しなかった。さらに、野生型p53蛋白質はSV40抗原の複製開始点への結合を阻害し、その結果としてT抗原による複製開始点を含む二重鎖DNA断片の一本鎖への巻き戻しを阻害するが、T抗原によって一本鎖環状M13DNA上の短いオリゴヌクレオチドが遊離される反応に対しては非常に弱い阻害効果しか示さないことがわかった。また、野生型p53蛋白質がSV40の複製開始点近傍に塩基配列特異的に結合することが報告されているが、この部分のDNA配列を欠失してもp53蛋白質による複製阻害が見られたことから、p53蛋白質の複製開始点近傍への結合は複製阻害にあまり重要でないと考えられた。以上の結果から、p53蛋白質によるSV40DNA複製阻害の機構は、主にSV40抗原との複合体形成によりT抗原の複製開始点への結合を阻害することにあると考えられる。

    SV40DNAの無細胞複製系に対する種々のプロテインキナーゼの影響を調べる目的で、まず精製された複製蛋白質に対して試験管内でリン酸化反応を行なってみた。その結果、MAPキナーゼやカゼインキナーゼIIがいくつかの複製蛋白質をリン酸化することが明らかとなった。しかしながら、これらのリン酸化反応によって各複製蛋白質の活性、および全体の複製反応に影響が見られるという結果は得られなかった。一方、ガン抑制遺伝子産物がG1期からS期への移行、染色体複製の開始を制御するという観点から、ヒトp53蛋白質の昆虫細胞における大量発現、ならびにモノクローナル抗体を用いた精製系を確立した。この系を用いて野生型ヒトp53蛋白質、およびヒトがん細胞から単離された数種の変異型p53蛋白質を精製し、SV40DNAの無細胞複製系に対する影響を解析した。その結果、野生型p53蛋白質SV40DNA複製を強く阻害したのに対して、変異型p53蛋白質はいずれも阻害を示さなかった。このSV40DNA複製の阻害活性と、それぞれのp53蛋白質のSV40T抗原との結合能の間には良い相関が見られ、実際に複製産物の解析から野生型p53による複製の阻害が開始段階の阻害であることが示唆された。現在、この組換えp53蛋白質を試験管内でリン酸化、および脱リン酸化した時に複製阻害活性に影響があるかどうか検討中である。

    細胞周期におけるヌクレオチド除去修復活性の変動を解析する目的で、マウスFM3A細胞をnocodazoleでM期に同調後、解除して適当な時間培養したものをエルトリエーターで分画し、G1期の細胞を集めた。また、同様にFM3A細胞をaphidicolinでG1/S期境界に同調、及び解除することにより、エルトリエーター分画でS期とG2/M期の細胞を得た。これらの細胞より粗抽出液を調整し、無細胞修復系における活性を比較したところ、G2/M期の細胞抽出液がG1、及びS期の抽出液よりも2倍程度高い修復活性を示すことがわかった。さらに、マウスのcdc2キナーゼに変異を有するFM3A細胞の温度感受性突然変異株、tsFT210細胞を非許容温度でG2期に停止させたもの、及びこれをnocodazole存在下に許容温度に戻してM期に進めたものについて同様に修復活性を調べた。その結果、M期の細胞抽出液の方がG2期に停止した細胞抽出液よりも若干修復活性が高いという結果が得られた。現在、除去修復反応におけるcdc2キナーゼの関与、及び無細胞修復反応に伴う抽出液中のcdc2キナーゼの活性変動について検討中である。一方、哺乳類細胞のヌクレオチド除去修復自体に関与する因子を明らかにする目的で、C群色素性乾皮症の修復欠損を無細胞系で相補する蛋白質因子を同定し、その解析を進めているが、本年度においてはこの因子を構成する二種類のポリペプチドについてcDNAクローニングを行なった。

    We isolated cDNA of the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase alpha from tsFT20 cells, a temperature-sensitive mutant cell line derived from mouse FM3A cells. DNA sequence analysis revealed that the cDNA has a single mutation, a cytosine to thymine substitution that changes amino acid 1180 from serine to phenylalanine. We have also shown that tsFT20 cells could be rescued by transfection with the wild-type cDNA.In addition, we detected mutation sites in one spontaneous and six N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine-induced growth revertants of tsFT20 cells. All revertant cell lines had a second point mutation adjacent to the first mutation site in tsFT20 cells. During activation of quiescent Swiss mouse 3T3 cells to proliferate, the levels of mRNA of the four subunits of the DNA polymerase alpha-primase complex increased before DNA synthesis. In order to analyze how the expression of these genes are controlled, we have isolated upstream region of these genes and determined their nucleotide sequence. There are 1-2 E2F-binding sequence and 10-14 dp palindromic sequence, and one AP1-binding motif in each upstream region. We overexpressed cDNAs of the DNA polymerase alpha-primase complex in E.coli or insect cells, purified the gene products and raised the specific antibodies against them. Co-precipitation experiments showed that 54K subunit has affinity to all other three subunits. We have also shown that 180K subunit has DNA polymerase activity and 46K subunit has primase activity.

  • Involvement of Chromosome in Regulation of DNA Replication and Repair

    We have developed a call-free system for replication of SV40 minichromosomes with purified proteins. Since this reconstituted system lacked activity of de novo nucleosome assembly, we could specifically examine the behavior of parental histones during chromosome replication. Solution hybridization analyses suggested that the histones were not completely detached from but somehow associated with template DNA. Using strand-specific probes and MNase digested nascent mononucleosomal DNA, we obtained the results indicating that the parental histone octamers were segregated distributively between leading and lagging strands during the chromosome replication with purified proteifis. When SV40 chromosomes were replicated with topoI alone as a swivelase, the reaction produced shorter leading strands but those of mature size were accumulated in the reaction supplemented with topo II. These results indicate that topo II has a crucial role as a swivelase in the late stage of SV40 chromosome replication in vitro. On the other hand, we have developed a cell-free system supporting repair reactions on DNA organized into hucleosomes, that is, SV40 chromosomes. Standard reaction mixtures contained UV-irradiated SV40 chromosomes, unirradiated plasmid DNA, whole cell extracts of HeLa cells(Manley's extracts), ATP-regenerating system and several low molecular weight materials including[alpha-^<32>P]dCTP. After incubated at 30゚C, DNAs were isolated, digested with EcoRI and separated by agarose gel electrophoresis. Repair synthesis as well as nick-translation of DNAs were detected by autoradiography. DNA synthesis on SV40 DNA was dependent on doses of irradiated DNA. When we used cell extracts made from XP-A or XP-C cells in place of HeLa cell extracts, the UV-dependent DNA synthesis decreased remarkably. Mixing of XP-A and XP- C cell extracts restored the DNA synthesis to similar level as HeLa cell extracts. Thus our in vitro system appears to be useful for reconstituting at least some features of chromosomal DNA excision repair.
